摘要:
A GPS publication server (19). A mobile location knowledgeable device (13) is in communication with the server (19). The server (19) provides indications of the device's location to a home page associated with the device. The home page includes information about a user of the device (13) and methods of contacting the user at any particular time. The server is also in communication with a variety of application servers. The application servers push information to the device (19) depending on the device location and preferences listed in the home page of the device.

A location tagged data provision and display system. A personal communication device (PCD) with electromagnetic communication capability has a GPS receiver and a display. The PCD requests maps and location tagged data from data providers and other for display on the PCD. The data providers respond to requests by using searching and sorting schemes to interrogate data bases and then automatically transmitting data responsive to the requests to the requesting PCD.
摘要:
A user profile (60, 62, 64, 66, 68) based navigation system. The navigation system stores location centric information in a database (33) associated with a user profile (60, 62, 64, 66, 68). Information from the database (33) is provided to users (31, 37, 41) based on a selected user profile, which modifies the types of data provided to a user at a geographic location. Data in the database (33) is loaded into the database based on user supplied information and an indication of user geographic location.
摘要:
In a control and management system for automobiles, a central processor (103) in the system connects unrelated vehicle subsystems (157) together to realize synergistic function smart driving and automatic parking. A master interface having a display is employed in the system to help a user control and manage the vehicle functions (961).
摘要:
In a navigation device in accordance with the invention, user profiles may be stored and used to navigate a user who may be driving in a vehicle, on foot, or in other mode of transportation. Each user profile corresponds to one of the user's personae. For example, the user business profile corresponding to the user's business persona may be different from the user personal profile corresponding to the user's personal persona. For instance, the user business profile may include fine-dining type restaurants for business meetings while the user personal profile may instead include fast-food type restaurants for personal dining. The inventive navigation device provides the user with a navigated route, together with information concerning the favorite facilities and events surrounding the navigated route, which satisfy the preferences in a selected user profile. In accordance with an aspect of the invention, blockages may also be established using the device to avoid selected areas, e.g., high crime areas, in the navigated route, or to block transmission of selected information concerning, e.g., uninteresting facilities and events, to the inventive navigation device.

摘要:
A personal communication device (PCD) with electromagnetic communication capability has a GPS receiver and display (28, 30). The PCD requests maps and location tagged data from data providers and for display on the PCD. The data providers respond to requests by searching and sorting schemes to interrogate data bases and then automatically transmit data responsive to the requests to the requesting PCD.
